My Mama's Old Sewing Machine

A year ago, I asked Mama if she would mind me borrowing her old sewing machine in order to hem and fix some curtains in my house....it became my machine and sat in a closet...un-used for a year. (Didn't even do the curtains like I had wanted.)

Recently, I have decided to try those pins on Pinterest that I looked at and thought..."oh, I can totally do that!!!" 

I have caught "the bug" and I'm super proud to say I've sewn a baby sling, a pacifier clip, and 2 hooded towels!!! I even tried fancy stitching on the towels!

Here is Alyssa modeling one of the towels. After this picture was taken, I decided to embellish it a little...you know...make it super cute to match my girls' super cuteness. 

Here is the 2nd hood with the cute fabric tape that I added. 

Excited and feeling crafty!!

Audrey Reading Her Book

Audrey decided to read her book to the room yesterday. 

8.5 months old and here we go!!

After nap time we practice crawling in the hallway, but always seem to get distracted by the air return vent. 

Alyssa can pull up, but Audrey is more interested in what's closer to the floor. 

This is pretty standard, Alyssa is standing and Audrey....tempting fate. Alyssa is mostly stable on her feet, she falls only a few times, and only once in Audrey. 

We spent some time in the yard! Mommy was surprised at how long we were able to be outside. 74 degrees out on January 21, 2015. Unbelievable. We had giggles at the dogs and overall contentment with the breeze and outdoors. 

Once the dogs settled down a bit, Apollo was happy to lay by his babies and keep a close eye on them while they played with their toys. 

Someone's rattle got the dogs stirred up again...and Ava wasn't too sure what to think of it all. 

January 22nd, Mommy tried a new trick for shopping at Target. We both fit in the shopping cart for now...we enjoyed our trip (but that's nothing new-we always love shopping). We had fun smiling at everyone and trying to grab Mama's frappachino. 

We're still here!!!

It has been a while since Iast posted. Holidays man...they are busy!!

Here is a little series of pictures from earlier today. We are very busy little girls. 

They were giggling like you wouldn't believe. 

Alyssa is crawling now and Audrey isn't too far behind. 

Alyssa is also figuring out how to pull up. She looked out the window for a while on her knees. 

Pretty girl Alyssa. 

Audrey getting her first tastes of peaches. This is a pretty cool contraption by the way.
